[gentoo-soc] Framework for automated ebuild generators: weekly report #12

[Jauhien Piatlicki]

Hi all,

summary
~~~~~~~

I'm working on `Framework for automated ebuild generators [1]. My mentor
is Rafael Martins. The aim of this project is to facilitate creation of
ebuild-generators for 3d party software providers. For those interested
in the advance of a project there is a Kanban board [2] and a
git-repository with code [3].

week #12
~~~~~~~

Status: behind the schedule.

Work on PyPI backend was ended. Also some little fixes and changes in
g-sorcery were done (the most important may be a tool to manipulate
package data bases was added). A work on overlay configuration was started.

Plans:
- add actual tests for a framework
- improve documentation
- end with configuration of overlays

Due to previous lot of time spend on PyPI I've decided to resign from a
paludis support and 4-th backend during GSoC (it is ok according to
original GSoC proposal, as it was added later or was optional) and focus
on putting all already written code in order.
